On October 11, 2012, Gladstone Capital Corporation (the "Company") terminated the Equity Distribution Agreement (the "Agreement") by and between the Company, Gladstone Management Corporation, and BB&T Capital Markets, a division of Scott & Stringfellow, LLC (the "Agent"), dated May 17, 2010. Gladstone Management Corporation is the external manager and an affiliate of the Company. By its terms, the Agreement was terminable by the Company at its sole discretion.
